The purpose of this wiki is to have the ability to access a compilation of internet sites, resources, activities and lesson plans in one place that can be used to teach history (as well as the other social studies disciplines) while incorporating literacy. This site will include links to interactive websites that can be used to enrich lessons in history, geography, civics, economics, and the social sciences with literacy skills included.
Who Am I?
My name is Erin. I am a senior at Western CT State University. I am finishing up my B.S. in Elementary Education with a content area focus of History. I have always wanted to be a teacher, just as I have always loved school. I love learning new things and I look forward to the chance to instill this love in my future students.
I enjoy playing piano and singing, as well as doing various types of crafts, and I look forward to finding ways to incorporate some of these into my classroom and lessons. I also have a love for photography, movies, and elephants.
